streamer/caster for the UCI CSL team, along with co-casters ghostclaw, alia, and darrenc.

He was also in very close proximity to SlayerS_'BoxeR'.
Wolf "Wolf" Schroder: "Hi, my name is Wolf, and I'm a StarCraft II commentator. I've been doing this for over a year now, and I have covered many well-known foreign tournaments. I'm also on the FXOpen e-Sports Team. I'm really excited to work with the CSL because I feel like it's a great way for StarCraft players to work together in a team environment not only online, but often face to face as well. "

Dan "Frodan" Chou is a junior at the University of California San Diego. He first started casting to
stream the weekly games for UCSD's coordinator, Xeris. Since Starcraft 2 was released, he has studied the game day and night. During these CSL casts, he found an increased desire to further dive into the game. He does his best to play SC2 whenever he is not casting to understand the meta-game and offer different insight. He hopes to bring CSL entertaining and fun casts in the future and hopes that you guys tune in! "Be sure to say hi if you ever see me online

Mona "Hazelynut" Zhang is a proud member of the Princeton 2v2 team (5g speedling all the way!),
closet commentator, and CSL mother since 2009. And (hell), it's about time to dust off her commentating idol days to get pumped for CSL Playoff action! Season 4, 4ever.
Duran "Xeris" Parsi is known as That Guy Who Organizes Every SC2 Tournament. Ever. As a UCSD alum who shed a few manly tears in Season 3 when UCSD took the gold, Xeris is now reluctantly taking the backseat and not smurfing for his team this season. He'll be joining the CSL as commentator in addition to his role as a weekly reviewer in which teams bribe him for highlights.
Mark "DarthThienAn" Ha is a sophomore at Princeton and an "undefined" admin in the CSL (meaning he does all the work). Darth is well-known for 2-0'ing Haemonculus (using DTs), beating Duke's ace Terran (using proxy 4gate), and hosting the ever-so-popular CSL Starjeweled Tournament.
Kevin "CatsPajamas" Knocke is an aspiring eSports broadcaster, emphasizing on exciting play-

Andre "Gretorp" Hengchua, analytical Terran and former Fnatic progamer turned NASL commentator, is joining the CSL because he loves Princeton kids and education. Watch out for his tutorials and streams, or you may learn too much.
Zach "Diggity" Smith is an experienced commentator, harkening back to the days of BroodWar,
including the earliest days of the CSL. He's well known for his work with SC2GG, GosuCoaching, and Reddit, and we're glad to have him returning for another season of the CSL!
Sean "Day[9]" Plott needs no introduction, but here goes: formerly an A+ Brood War player, he has
become perhaps the world's most famous and most loved commentator, and after his spectacular finals cast last season, we couldn't miss the chance to have him back to cast this season's finals!
